Caught Many

This is a fantastic book for all ages and disiplines. Children of all ages will appreciate it for fact and fantasy. Art students will be enthralled by the creatures. It is a must have for teachers.

Great book, good cause...

Wonderful black and blue artwork features endangered ocean life. It's accompanying A to Z primer (featuring endanged animals) is great too.

Another ingenious and gorgeous book from a Caldecott winner.

The illustrator David McLimans once more celebrates the intriguing beauty of our vanishing natural world with his sophisticated drawings. This is a book that attracts both adults and children, and its mournful thesis of the oceans' demise is put to constructive use with a respectful look at the miracles of sea life and the need to counteract the harmful habits of humans. Breathtaking in every way.
